$1 for a litre of milk, $1 for a loaf of bread...
Yes, that's right, a price drop of about 6.5% for the milk (from $1.07 to $1), and 15% for the bread (from $1.19 to $1) ... Not what I would call slashed, as some have said...

I say again, what is it with bread and milk?
Surely you'd stockpile something that would keep if, say, you had no fridge ...

One kinda necessitates the other, I s'pose, so there was some logic.

It's usually more a function of what I can be bothered to cook. Beans on toast are always an easy option.
Student life taught me nothing if not how to cook simple meals
